Challenge Quests

Challenge Quests are additional quests separate from the game's main story. These quests come in various types that have Flynn perform different kinds of tasks, such as delivering items, defeating certain Demons, escorting a character, and so forth. In addition to rewarding Experience Points and Macca, Challenge Quests may also reward in items or equipment when completed. A few Challenge Quests are exclusive to certain Alignment routes, while others only become available in a New Game+.

With the exception of "Delivery" type Challenge Quests, which are always active, Challenge Quests must be accepted from the menu in order to make progress on them. Only one Challenge Quest can be accepted at a time and, while a Challenge Quest is active, any Partners currently accompanying Flynn will leave for its duration.

Most Challenge Quests are optional and do not need to be completed in order to advance the game's main story, with some exceptions. The Challenge Quests "Collect Demon Claws", "Gather Some Naraku Lichen", "The Lion's Roar Within Naraku", "Corpse Disposal", and "Overcome the Trial" are all required to complete during the game's pre-route story. In the Neutral route, a number of Challenge Quests need to be completed in order to progress with the remainder of the story; these Challenge Quests are clarified by a tooltip next to their names.
